The Kings have officially signed center Drew Eubanks, according to NBA.com’s transaction log. The move had been anticipated after the big man was waived last week by the Clippers.
Eubanks, 28, opened the 2024/25 season with the Jazz and appeared in 37 games for the club, averaging 5.8 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 1.2 assists in 15.4 minutes per contest.
His playing time dropped off after he was sent to the Clippers in a deadline deal — the 6’10” center averaged just 2.7 PPG and 2.4 RPG in 7.4 MPG across 24 appearances in Los Angeles and only saw garbage-time action in the playoffs for the Clippers. As such, it came as no surprise when L.A. opted to waive him before his $4.75MM salary for 2025/26 became guaranteed.
Eubanks will provide depth in the Kings’ frontcourt behind center Domantas Sabonis, giving the team a reliable veteran off the bench alongside young bigs Isaac Jones and Maxime Raynaud.
While the terms of his one-year deal haven’t yet been reported, it will almost certainly be a minimum-salary contract for Eubanks.
Light the beam…
looks like the GM was blinded by the beam
The old GM, stuck the Kings, with the Bulls@#t pair of players/contracts in grabbing for anything Fox trade. The CBA limits what the Kings can do this year, so it will be a work on the young guys year and hope they lose enough to get a new PG in the draft next year. Anything else is just false hope. Just calling it as I see the league and Kings.
If only the kings had recently drafted a good point guard
Yes the Kings drafted some good PGs, the fact is they are no longer on the Kings. So hopefully they can again and maybe Perry will put players around him. Play it again sam!!!
Ben Simmons as a FA would be a great addition for Sacramento.
Trade DeRozan for Kuminga.
A stretch big would do wonders for them.

Bring more athleticism and shooting.
